Current Input Port Auto-Detect Setting
Background
The Current Input Port Auto-Detect setting will allow
the DMM to detect whether current is applied to the 1A
or 10A input ports and enables it to set the correct range
when Auto range is on.
The Current detect feature works by activating the input
port only when a certain Detect Threshold is reached and
deactivating the input port when the input current dips
below a certain Reset Threshold.
